/media/uploads/shallenliu/apa107_rgb.pdf
what is APA107? it was more competitive & cheaper price than the common APA102/APA102C, now harder to come by, as nobody can produce APA102/APA102C, because they can not get the IC. APA107 is same with APA102, it had some intriguing properties. The main benefits are a timing-insensitive SPI interface, allowing easy interfacing to standard periphery, and a much higher PWM frequency of >19kHz, making the APA107 almost flicker free.
Now we can not get APA102/APA102C, so APA107 is the best choice to replace it.
